I would made the Buscaglia's Gobbo but i saw Tommy doing it, so i decide for another, particular, camo

About this camo:
S. 79 - 253a Squadriglia, 104° Gruppo Aerosiluranti - Gadurrà (Rodi) 1943. The represented airplane was equipped with Alpha 128 engines purposely conceived in order to improve the performances at a low altitude, typical employment of the speciality. Moreover it evidences one interesting experimental camouflage found until today only on aircrafts of the 104th Gruppo.
